The Fairfield team of Robbie Thomson, John Cross, Murray
Wilson and skip Blair Barringer won the men's open fours when
they beat Bruce Walker, Dave Hodges, Louis Boock and Malcolm
Wilson (Taieri) 12-8 at the Kaikorai green.

It was the first Bowls Dunedin title for Cross, the second
for Wilson, the eighth for Barringer and the 13th for
Thomson.

It was special for Barringer who equalled the 30-year-old
record of Kaikorai's Stewart McConnell, who made the final of
three of Bowls Dunedin's four open events.
